What do reviewers say about Paragon and Rehab?
If you want safe, look elsewhere. Paragon hits hard from the first spray and never apologizes for it. That said, the drydown on skin is genuinely beautiful.Paragon
This one is not trying to seduce you. It opens like a reset button, all clean lavender and citrus sharpness, then quietly builds into something woody and assured.Rehab
